Panzer-Rgt.35 / Interesting Variant PAB Award Doc... Already seen ?

[Lionel H.]

Hi Guys !

Got a little Group for a few Weeks from the 4th Pz.Div. that I am eagerly collecting...

This is the first PAB Award Doc I see from this print. I already saw another one on the Forum, also for a Pz.Rgt.35 Guy, a "II.Stufe" (25 Days) dated 1945 May 4th !!! and shared by Member Gabor Tischler.

Note the Printer Marking below left "Franz Elteste, Mühlberg (Elbe)".

My Questions so far :

1) Do you Guys already saw this Variant ?
2) Used only by Pz-Rgt.35 or not ?
3) Only late Attributions 44-45 ??

All Contributions highly appreciated !! Lionel.

Thank you Peter. That is also the first Time that I see this Printer Name. So... interesting to know if he produced a lot (I don't thing so...) or if it was just an Order from the 4.Pz.Div. in 1944.... I would like to see more Imput, but it is not an easy thing ;-)
Kind regards. Lionel.

Not find another nor in my collection neither in my books, but I see that the 1 Panzer division used a model in 1.941-1.942 also from a printer, maybe exclusive for them or an order specially to supply them.

When you can show the rest of the group, I can bet it will be awesome.

Cheers

Here is the one publsihed by Gabor Tischler, reproduced here without his authorisation, but with a big copyright credited to him, I hope it is OK !!

Wow.... happy to have discovered this one on the Net..... It seems the Printer furnished more Stuff to the Panzer Rgt.35 !!!!! Just to "feed" this Thread almost alone....

Is it the style of document that's unusual or the fact it has the printers name? Jim

[Lionel H.]

Hi Jim. There are actually a lot of different Printers Names on German Document, but indeed, IMO, this one seems to be really rare.

Of course, both Prints showed before are "own design" from the Printer. Actually, my main Question is if this Printer only answered to an order from the Pz.Rgt.35..... or if he supplied more Units.

This discussion about the Word "rare" gives perhaps a wrong Sense to my Question, because I think that, even if this Printer only supplied some hundreds of documents to a Panzer Regiment, it makes NO financial Difference with a more "classical" one.
